Doctors, Art and Father's Day

Had a varied and fun last few days.  Paul had doctor's appointments up north on Thursday, so we drove up Wednesday after work and had such a nice time visiting with Brynn and the girls.  I was dumb and didn't take in pics there, but had such a good time.  So nice to get to see everyone a little more often.  Jay was off scouting.  In the morning we headed down to Provo for the first doctor visit.  We got there with a little time to spare, so we drove up the canyon and took a little walk to see Bridal Veil Falls.  It is such a pretty place.

After that appointment we stopped by the BYU Museum of Art and enjoyed the two exhibits that were available to see there.  One was Simpler, Brighter, Stronger - Early Modernism and Southwestern American Art 1910-1960.  Some paintings I liked, and some not so much.

There was also an amazing photographic exhibit:  Edward Burtynsy: The Industrial Sublime.  For it he photographed industrial scenes from around the world to display what he calls  "The beauty in the beast". They make you think about the impact of industrialization.

Then we tried out a little hole in the wall joint known for it's pieshakes for lunch.  The shakes were good, but the ice cream was not up to snuff.  I had read about how wonderful the shakes were in a magazine, and I'm afraid they were a little over rated...good idea, but not as well executed as they could have been with better ice cream.  Then it was off to the next doctor appointment.  After that one we drove the very long route home and enjoyed loads of beautiful scenery.  Friday evening we enjoyed going to art exhibits on display for the Art On Main program.  There's an amazing exhibit of the city's permanent collection on at the Art Museum right now.

Saturday morning we headed up to Cedar where Paul, with Lance to help, finished up the stone on the outside of Juge and Lance's new home.  I went to the Paiute Parade with Juge and kids and then went over and had fun hanging out with Lou and kids.  For dinner Juge, Lou and Christie had planned a fun Father's Day dinner for the men and took care of all the cooking.  I just brought the paper goods to eat on.  Such a fun evening.  No pictures again, but fun just the same!  Thanks to all for a delightful time in the cool of Cedar/Enoch!  Our at the house celebration was pretty low key.  Paul got a lot of his Father's Day presents early.  Today Weed and Ferf and families came to wish him a Happy Father's Day!  He's excited to get to eat out thanks to everyone's gift cards!  He's also excited for his bluetooth phone doohicky and loves his waterproof jacket!  Thanks to everyone!  Happy Father's Day Paul!  We love you!
